The Madison Range is a mountain range located in the Rocky Mountains of Montana and Idaho U.S. The range was named in honor of future President of the United States then U.S. Secretary of State James Madison by Meriwether Lewis as the Lewis and Clark Expedition travelled through Montana in 1805. The range extends 80 miles (130 km) from West Yellowstone Montana to Bozeman Montana and is flanked by the Madison River on the west and the Gallatin River to the east.
